I'll just make an observation here. Shimrod, I have no idea what you're talking about. I have never heard of a surface tablet. But that doesn't bother me.

I have a nice life. I have my desktop at home and my MIDI controller. I make music, use the Internet some, and I'm happy. My husband used to have a smartphone (provided by employer) and we both hated it.

Upthread, Punkfolkrocker linked to a presentation by a man from IBM who was talking about audio applications. He actually said this:

"We plan to support the entire spectrum of devices, from raspberry pies to hollow-leg (or maybe Hello Lamb) screens such as corporations use in conference rooms." [shows picture of a lot of similar black devices, from small to great big]


I have no idea what he's talking about, but I don't need to know. I just think that if he's the MIDI guy, he should talk about MIDI.
